If we don't get Durant, the White Mamba might have to come out of retirement.

"Chris Broussard reports the latest on Kevin Durant, who is expected to make his free-agency decision Monday morning. "It's down to four teams officially."

This dude doesn't know his a*s from his elbow.  Honestly, one minute, if I read prior posts correctly, it was down to OKC and GSW...and now it's down to 4 teams.  I'm still rolling with a decision between Boston and OKC.

Wait where did you get that quote from? I don't see anything on twitter.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

Imagine if KD announces he is signing with the Celtics on July 4th... Wyc's "fireworks" would n'écope the greatest quote/prediction ever !

I don't know what that word means but yeah! Go team!

Aha it's the french auto-spelling that screwed up the "become" I typed!

Those OKC fans are going to turn reeeeaaaaallly nasty if and when he signs with Warriors or us, or Spurs.

OKC will have a lot of cap space though if they do lose out on KD. I will be curious to see if they give Russell a shot at winning it all without him by adding some big defensive pieces, getting better shooting than Dion/Roberson etc..

From an unconfirmed source on Twitter :

"REPORT: People close w/ Durant informed Celtics insiders that KD will sign w/ C's. Will let public know midday July 4th via @PlayersTribune."

The guy, Nick Mattioli, pretends to have had an internship for the Celtics and being in touch with a current team member. Sounds fishy but he did announce correctly the Horford signing with the contract details before it was revealed on Twitter : "Per source, Celtics offered Al Horford a 4yr, $113M max-salary offer. Told team he'll sign & make it official after attending Durant meeting"

N'écope actually means "to scoop up" amazingly... omens everywhere. This is getting freaky.

Basically what we have all gathered is that all reports seem to be misleading.  No concrete evidence up to this point.  My friend texted me this morning saying that KD had signed a 2 year agreement with the Celtics, according to The Vertical, and then he claimed he couldn't find the Tweet anymore, as if it was deleted.  So we shall see. 

I know this has been mentioned, but what if KD has already committed, but the Celtics want to keep "fireworks" reserved for July 4?  I guess it is possible.

Do you guys think if we were out of it we would have asked if we're no longer being considered so we can move on? Do you think Horford or IT are in his ear tonight?

Is say it's OKC 50/GSW 35/BOS 15 percent chance maybe I think we still gotta be in it

I actually believe this guy.  Sounds like an honest dude.  Most people aren't.  I can tell the difference.  Probably because I am one. They are rare.

I am going to hunt you down Nick Mattioli and get all Vikings on you if this is false, but: OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
